Hi Please confirm that whether you have other applications using the same port (80) with Default website . For instance whether you have sharepoint deployed.(SBS will install it) If indeed, try to change the application to use other port and test again.

Hi, Yes it was that I had another application was using port 80. How it got there its a mistery. All i had to do is the stop the application in the IIS and reset the IIS. Now working fine.
